Abstract

This study evaluated the availability and utilization of visual and audio instructional resources in public and private primary schools in Rivers State, Nigeria. Two research questions were stated to guide the study. The research design used for the study was an ex-post facto design. The population of the study comprised of eight thousand, two hundred and ninety-eight (8,298) teachers in public and private primary schools. A multi-stage sampling technique was used. A sample size of one thousand six hundred and sixty (1,660) teachers were used for the study. Checklist titled Availability and Utilization of Instructional Resources (AUIRC) was used for data collection. Descriptive statistics (percentages, mean and standard deviation) was used for data analysis. The result revealed that, availability and utilization of instructional resources is relatively low in public schools and high in private schools. Conclusion was drawn in line with the result of the study. It was therefore recommended that the Ministry of Education in Rivers State through relevant agencies should organize regular orientation/workshops on the improvisation and utilization of instructional resources in order to enhance effective teaching and learning in primary schools.
